Newly launched oral fluid drug test.

Back to the lab oral fluid drug tests

Recently launched as an alternative test to the former popular Altrix oral fluid lab test is the new Draeger DCD 5000 oral fluid back to the lab drug test.

Single swab

Specifically designed for forensic applications, the Dräger DCD 5000 has been developed for evaluating the presence of various drugs including the following drugs and their metabolites:-

Drugs Detected

amphetamine, opiates, benzodiazepine, delta-9-tetrahydrocanabinol, cocaine and metabolites, methamphetamine and morphine.

The Dräger DCD 5000 oral fluid drug test.

Shows minimal variance in the volume of the sample collected, and due to the very high recovery rate it is possible to make semi-quantitative  conclusions relating to the concentration of the analyte found within the sample at the time of collection.

Dräger DCD 5000 Oral Fluid Collection Kit

This quick and simple oral fluid (saliva) collection kit allows for a non-invasive approach to collection for future analysis.

The Dräger DCD 5000 is designed to collect and hold a sample of Approximately 0.4ml of oral fluid so that the sample can then be sent for further analysis.

The Dräger DCD 5000 is particularly useful when collecting, storing and transporting an oral fluid drug test sample to a laboratory.

A and B samples

If two seperate drug test samples are required, this can be achieved simply by combining two devices and a simultaneous “double sample” can be collected.

A and B samples

After taking the samples, the collection devices can again be seperated, independently sealed within transport tubes and analyzed seperately, offering a particularly undiluted, non-chemically treated, sample spit approach.

Sample Extraction.

Additionally, sample extraction by the laboratory has also been simplified with a patented sample ejector also minimizing the infection risk of laboratory personnel.

Oral fluid testing

Oral Fluid Drug Testing.

Oral fluid drug testing is widely used in preference to urine testing.

The main benefits of using saliva drug tests are the ease of use in collecting the sample and the ability of the drug test to check for recent use instead of historical use.

MHS now offers one of the widest wide range of point of care oral fluid drug tests in the UK.

From the exclusive Drugalyser roadside drug test to the more portable oral fluid drug test cassettes.
